The Berean's were curious

Acts 17:10-11 And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews. These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.

The Berean believers rightfully questioned things. They were curious, and their search of the scriptures is evidence of this.

Their nobility was based upon receiving and searching. They honestly wanted to know if what was said, was so.

We can model the Berean's curious behavior by following their example.

Take an extra minute to dig a little deeper in the word. Spend an extra few minutes asking that Bible question, you were hesitant to ask before.

A curious mind, that is ready for its daily search of the scriptures is how someone develops a sharp mind.
